Our favorite family ice cream place. So good it’s worth going in the winter, too!

Great ice cream with tons of flavors, one flavor for $5, two for $6!Like most places, they offered free samples and I really appreciated the clipboard wall to clearly display all the flavors they had available. There were 3 different freezers, and so many options for cones, shakes, toppings, and even pints to take home ??I really enjoyed the matcha cheesecake and the orange chocolate chip flavors, as well as red velvet cake that had chunks of cake in their ice cream, that I tried but there were so many to choose from that I couldn’t try so I’d be happy to check it out again!Dietary restrictions: Ice cream flavors with nuts are clearly distinguished

We LOVE Sarah’s Handmade Ice Cream. It’s delicious every time. Today we visited the new store in Gaithersburg and Sarah herself was ringing out customers! What a great, family owned business. We are so lucky to have them.

I’m addicted to this ice cream and im not a big ice cream eater . I find myself driving all the way from DC just to enjoy my favorite combo which is lavender honey and lemon poppy seed. 10/10 the best I’ve ever tasted, and the flavors are very creative . Most Ice creams are “heavy” and makes you full quickly but Sarahs isn’t . Never getting ice cream from anywhere but here I don’t mind the drive.

Amazing ice cream with great service! The staff are always so kind and helpful, and every visit I struggle to pick which flavor to get because genuinely all of them are sooooo delicious. Worth every penny and then some! My favorite will consistently be the Coffee Oreo, hands down. However, their seasonal flavors never miss and I always crave the Apricot Pistachio!Dietary restrictions: They have many vegan and gluten free options that are delicious, and they take extra care when serving customers with allergies.Parking: I’ve never had trouble finding parking right out front, however the lot itself is very large and free in case the spots near the store are taken.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of flavors that younger kids can enjoy.

I just love this place. It makes me happy to survey the flavors and make choices, especially during the holidays. As a community we need Sarah’s to be successful. Speaking for myself, I would be so upset if they ever closed the River Road location in Bethesda. So let’s be mindful and generous there. Life is not worth living without great ice cream.
